Tuesday is typically the worst day of the week for commuter traffic in Belfast.
So, a simple question...
If Circle Line Phase 1 was running today, who would have used it? 🚆
And where would you have travelled from and to?
#openKnockmore #belfastCircleLine
24 new homes planned for Ballyclare.
With no rail option, that likely means 15+ more cars onto the M2.
This is how congestion gets locked in, housing delivered without transport.
#belfastcircleline
Significant residential plans for Ballyclare! A new development featuring 24 units, including detached, semi-detached, and townhouses, aims to boost housing options in the area.

Drone footage shows the future Lisburn West Station site at the old SERC campus, right beside Knockmore Industrial Estate.
A clear opportunity to connect jobs, housing and rail.
The Knockmore Line isn’t just an idea, it’s taking shape.

Crumlin Rail Halt📍
Ulsterbus depot beside it. Most of the town within a 15 min walk.
Could this also become a Park & Ride hub?
The potential is already there.

Can only one imagine Dublin without the DART?
Branded a “white elephant” - 2.5x over budget and forecast to lose millions a year.
Today it’s the backbone of the city’s transport network.
Worth remembering whenever Belfast talks about transport investment.
#belfastCircleLine #openKnockmore
Happy 40th Birthday to the DART
23 July 1984 the Dublin Area Rapid Transit (DART) began running between Bray and Howth
Prior to electrification of the line CIE used 1950s rail cars

@VisitDublin @IrishRail @DPowerFingal @irrsofficial @DiscoverIreland
Imagine this:
🔹 10-storey residential building
🔹 Ground-floor active frontage
🔹 A Cathedral Quarter / Gamble Street rail halt integrated at street level
#belfastCircleLine
Royal Mail relocates.
Tomb Street opens up.
Right beside the rail line.
If Belfast misses the chance to deliver a Cathedral Quarter / Gamble Street station here, we’ll regret it for decades.

The Belfast Circle Line campaign now has a website - and a one-click way to email your local politician and back rail expansion across Greater Belfast.
60 seconds. Real impact.

This should be Polar Express for so many seeing friends and family over the Christmas period.
BUILD the Circle Line already!

If you think traffic in Belfast is bad, then consider supporting the Belfast "Circle Line".
The Circle Line would have roughly 300k people living within 1 mile of the track, giving it the largest catchment area of any @nirailways branch.
The Circle Line would connect Belfast City Centre with @belfastairport, @BELFASTCITY_AIR, rural villages, commuter towns and greenways, with services every 15mins, 6am - Midnight, and later at weekends.
BUILD the Circle Line already!
A railway connection to @belfastairport is doable.
We can do this!
#BelfastCircleLine #openKnockmore
A queue for one bus at @belfastairport isn’t a surprise - it’s the inevitable outcome of an airport with no rail connection.
A Circle Line stop at the International Airport would mean fast, frequent, reliable links to Belfast and beyond.

Belfast International is one of only a few major UK airports with no rail link - the Knockmore Line is the fastest, cheapest fix.
The feasibility study is done. There’s no reason for secrecy. Publish it and set a clear path forward.

🚉✍️If you haven't already, please do consider adding your name to my open letter calling for clarity and confirmation regarding the Knockmore Railway Line between Lisburn and Antrim via Belfast International Airport.

Four years of advocacy, collaboration, and belief in a better-connected Belfast. The Circle Line remains more than an idea - it’s a vision for affordable, sustainable transport linking people, places and opportunity. 💚

The reopening of the Western Rail Corridor shows what years of local advocacy can achieve - even in the face of doubt and delay.
It’s a reminder that every rail campaign matters.
Change only happens when people keep pushing for it.

Re-opening of Western Rail Corridor is officially a ‘project in motion’ https://t.co/Q9CUhxjcFd
A recent Reddit thread on Belfast traffic summed it up well:
Gridlock, poor enforcement, unreliable buses, missing cycle lanes - and no real alternative to driving.
The consensus? Build reliable transport first, then manage car demand.
#belfastcircleline #openKnockmore
If you live in Antrim or Ballyclare, your last bus still leaves well before last call.
BUILD the Circle Line already - with services running beyond midnight for both patrons and staff. 🚆🍻
#belfastcircleline #openKnockmore
Translink has announced details of a one-year pilot scheme which will see late-night transport hours extended.
The scheme will begin on Friday 28 November 2025 with buses running on Friday and Saturday evenings.

Good to see @PhillipBrett21 raise this - a pedestrian & cycle crossing at Loughside pitches is essential, not only for now, but for any future Loughside Park rail halt and bridge connection to Giant’s Park.
Joined-up planning now will save years later. #BelfastCircleLine #ActiveTravel #NorthBelfast
A new train station for North Belfast at Loughside Park?
BUILD the Circle Line already!

For too many in Greater Belfast, that calm commute still isn’t an option.
The Circle Line would change that - connecting 300,000 people within a mile of rail, giving more people a stress-free start to the day. ☕🚉
#belfastcircleline
With NI Railways, your commute becomes your calm when you spend it relaxed on the train.
Plan your journey today with the Translink Journey Planner App and find your calm before the day.
We can’t keep funnelling every journey through the city core. The Circle Line would connect the city centre to suburbs - taking pressure off the centre and keeping Belfast moving.
